See the best of Oahu at Honolulu condos
May 15th, 2008
Honolulu condos are your gateway to the best attractions on Oahu. The drive through central Oahu from the north shore town of Haleiwa will take you past much of Oahu’s history. You will pass through areas which once were planted with sugar as far as the eye could see, until the sugar industry died on Oahu. Many of these fields are now full of a newer crop, coffee. You’ll pass through many fields still planted with pineapple for the Del Monte and Dole Corporations. Along the way you can stop at the Dole Plantation Visitor Center where you can sample many pineapple treats, purchase lots of souvenirs and even try to make your way through the world’s largest maze.
The road south takes you past much of Hawaii’s military history including Schofield Barracks, considered by many to be the most beautiful military base in the world. As you reach the end of H2 you will find yourself near Pearl Harbor. A visit to Pearl Harbor requires at least a half day and more if you intend to visit all of the sites. Pearl Harbor is home to the U.S.S. Arizona Visitors Center and the U.S.S. Arizona Memorial as well as the U.S.S. Bowfin Submarine Museum and Park and the recently opened U.S.S. Battleship Missouri Memorial. Hawaiianbeachrentals.com has detailed articles on these attractions for your information: Pearl Harbor and the U.S.S. Arizona Memorial and Mighty Mo. We’ve now made our way around a big circle and arrived back at Honolulu condos. You certainly can’t see all of these attractions in one day or even one trip. That’s one of the reasons that so many tourists come back to Hawaii again and again.
